Because I may not be able to get on here on time Thursday afternoon, my pick for Thursday night's game is ... Denver by 3.

Fared well in the hurricane. The house was still there when I returned, something a lot of my neighbors couldn't say. Where was your flooded old home, Jags?

I didn't make picks last week after Thursday, dropping from third to fourth from last. I brought food poisoning home from the hurricane evacuation.

I'm thinking about locking everything this week. If I have a good week I can make up some lost ground. I'd be a broke degenerate gambler.

I'm late fixing dinner and my wife is growling at me. Here's the pick for tonight, and I'll be back later for the rest.

Rest later. Just finished a midterm and I need to wipe my brain clean by watching Slap Shot (as is tradition at the beginning of each hockey season).

Really wanted to pick the Chargers tonight, but I completely chickened out like the wimp that I am. Well, it's not over yet and these are the 16 Chargers...

South Jax Beach. Just south of the Pier. The video (I'm sure you've seen it) taken where the breach of the dunes happens and the flooding starts, my old house is the third one west of the beach (you can see it in the top right of the video around the 1:40 mark and couple of other times).
